Bottle Stoppers

[unable to retrieve full-text content]

Three bottle Stoppers made of dyed maple or birch laminated. The stoppers are Niles 301. The laminated dyed wood is no longer available from this source because the plant burned down late last year. The layers are about 1/16" thick. I am looking into making my own laminated pieces.

Bottle stoppers, bottle openers, and tea light holders....whats your favorite finish?

Hi all

I am starting on my holiday gifts and am looking for advice on what type of finish is easy to apply and durable for each. My gift list consists of bottle stoppers, bottle openers, and tea light holders.

To date, I have used HUT friction polish on bottle stoppers and bottle opener handles. It seems to hold up on the stoppers but not the bottle openers.

Since these are gifts I don't want a finishing failure to occur in a small matter of time

Thank you

George

I've never turned bottle stoppers before. I read the methods on the Ruth Niles web site but still have a question. Whether you use the mandrel or a carriage bolt to hold the stopper, do you need to tap the wood blank to screw the mandrel/bolt on? Thanks.
